Vermont Jazz Center

The Vermont Jazz Center is a center and school for Jazz founded by jazz guitarist Attila Zoller and located in Brattleboro, Vermont.[1] Zoller started the center as the Attila Zoller Jazz Clinics in 1974, and the center was later renamed as the Vermont Jazz Center when he incorporated the business.[2] The center runs an annual summer workshop that runs each year, as well as year round lessons and concert series.[1][3] In 2016, the center purchased a Steinway D-274.[1] In 2014, the center received an Aclaim Award from the national Chamber Music America.[3] The center does not rely on grant funding for much of its programming, generating funding from donors and other income.[4]
